Textbooks are required for all courses and you can choose the latest version of the Interior Design Reference Manual or the Qpractice exam guide. Other books are optional but recommended; please contact them for specific recommendations for your situation. You will also need a computer: a current Windows or Mac operating system and a currently updated browser or a desktop or laptop for the PRAC case study question type.
Qpractice's study program is 12 weeks and covers all knowledge statements on the NCIDQ Blueprint for all 3 NCIDQ exams (IDFX, IDPX and PRAC). You can easily complete each daily summary lesson with audio and quizzes in about an hour or less. Most Answer Vault videos are short—usually 5-15 minutes. Access study groups anytime, anywhere on your mobile app. So you can make regular progress towards your goals every day, even on busy workdays.
When you buy a 12 month premium access plan, you get 2 months free at Qpractice! Choosing a 4-month plan for textbooks can save you money instead of buying the same items individually. You can also save on individual purchases if you have a work or professional association group of 5 or more people, and you can email them for more information.
Immediately after registration, you will have access to the exam complete member area, where you can get started right away at Qpractice. Plus, the combined plan gives you access to all the lessons, quizzes, and practice tests you need to prepare for the IDFX, IDPX, PRAC exams, or all three!
